- 3 Day Training & Assessment
Onsite training (Face to Face)
This intensive 3-day course delivers a comprehensive, hands-on training experience designed to equip workers with the skills needed to operate elevating work platforms safely and efficiently. Combining standard institutional competency with high-risk operational protocols, the curriculum covers both scissor lifts and boom lifts, specifically highlighting operations for boom lengths extending 11 metres or more. Participants will undergo rigorous practical training; including pre-start inspections, outrigger stabilization, wind load calculations, and emergency descent procedures; alongside robust theory sessions to prepare for mandatory regulatory assessments.
Upon successful completion of the training and subsequent assessments, participants will achieve dual national recognition. Graduates receive a nationally accredited Statement of Attainment for the unit RIIHAN301E Operate elevating work platform alongside the formal mandated documentation required to secure an intermediate-level High Risk Work Licence (Class WP). These outcomes certify that the operator possesses the verified practical skills and safety knowledge required to operate scissor lifts and unrestricted boom lifts across any commercial, civil, or industrial workplace in Australia.
This qualification serves as a critical gateway for personnel looking to advance their careers in civil construction, mining, telecommunications, and heavy engineering sectors. Holding an unrestricted EWP and High Risk Work Licence opens immediate pathways to specialized rigging, dogging, and structural steel erection roles. Furthermore, this course establishes a solid educational foundation for individuals aiming to progress into specialized site leadership, risk management, or Work Health and Safety (WHS) supervisory positions across high-risk environments.
It is vital for industry professionals to understand that Australian safety frameworks divide elevating work platform operations into two distinct regulatory tiers. Standard institutional units cover vertical scissor platforms and boom lifts under 11 metres. However, operating a boom lift with a reach of 11 metres or more legally requires a national High Risk Work Licence (Class WP) regulated by state safety bodies like SafeWork. This unique combo course bridges that gap completely, consolidating both streams into a single 3-day program so operators leave fully licensed for any EWP asset on site.
SafeZone Training stands as an industry leader by delivering high-quality, safety-first operational instruction utilizing modern machinery and real-world site simulations. Our highly experienced, accredited trainers bring decades of genuine industrial experience to the training field, ensuring complex safety regulations are easily understood and practically applied. With flexible scheduling, purpose-built training facilities, and an exceptional track record of student success, choosing SafeZone Training means investing in premium, compliant education that keeps your workforce safe and your operations moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
The RIIHAN301E unit of competency covers standard institutional requirements for operating elevating work platforms (such as scissor lifts and boom lifts under 11 metres). However, to legally operate a boom lift with a platform height of 11 metres or more in Australia, you must hold a state-regulated National High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) for Class WP. This combo course explicitly covers both tiers of certification.
This comprehensive combination course is delivered face-to-face over 3 consecutive days. The extended timeframe is required to properly cover both standard EWP functions and the advanced, high-risk operational frameworks, calculations, and mandatory multi-part assessments required for unrestricted licensing.
Participants must be at least 18 years of age to undertake the High Risk Work Licence assessment component. You must also provide standard student registration identifiers and fulfil a mandatory 100-point identity check using valid, state-approved photo identification prior to commencing your practical, on-site training. A basic understanding of English (verbal, reading, and writing) is also required for safety assessments.
Upon successful completion of all institutional and regulatory assessments, you will receive a nationally recognized Statement of Attainment for RIIHAN301E Operate elevating work platform. Additionally, you will be issued the formal mandated documentation and application paperwork required to obtain your official National High Risk Work Licence (Class WP) from your state safety regulator (e.g., SafeWork).
The 3-day curriculum covers extensive theoretical and hands-on practical training for scissor lifts, compact booms, and industrial boom platforms over 11 metres. Key modules include:
-
Pre-start, post-start, and shut-down machine inspections.
-
Hazard identification, risk management, and wind load safety calculations.
-
Outrigger deployment, stabilization, and ground condition assessment.
-
Advanced platform maneuvering, path planning, and emergency ground-control descent procedures.
